What does the Bible say about the fulfillment of the law?

Answered in 2 sources

Jesus fulfilled the law, as stated in Matthew 5:17-18, indicating that he did not come to abolish it but to bring it to completion.

In Matthew 5:17-18, Jesus asserts that He did not come to abolish the law or the prophets but to fulfill them. This fulfillment indicates that the demands of the law were not discarded but were perfectly met in Christ's life and sacrifice. Every commandment and requirement of the law was fully performed by Jesus, who honored the law as the very lawgiver. Therefore, the law remains authoritative as it points believers to Christ, who has satisfied its requirements completely.
